Thank you all for the warm welcome! PBT was suggested to me from a couple current members. I used to volunteer and foster for SPBR. People have mentioned that I would have a good time here! I know my fault for not posting pics! I should have known better. You can all call me Ketch. Seems like most do anyways. Being the FNG I will change my name.

Dexter was at Freeport Animal Shelter in NY. They did a great job with him from when they found him. Needless to say, he was in rough shape. I adopted him about 4 months after they took him in as a pup with his ears still bleeding, skinny and scared to death. The volunteers were unable to get a collar on him at first due to his fear. He has come a long way since. I adopted him about a year and a half ago. Dexter has had a lot of socialization with dogs and people and now does great with everyone. Really great with kids as well. SO without further ado......DEXTER!

Aww thank you everyone! Dex is certainly a character! I have had dogs my whole life and he just blows me away everyday. Not taking anything away from the dogs I have had in the past but Dexter really is something else. I have always loved working with Pit Bulls in the past and knew this was the breed for me. My mother who has a DA Chihuahua mix was very much against a Pit Bull. I do not live with her but I watch her dog during the night and she watches mine during the day due to different schedules. Since Dexter came into our lives she has been a huge Pit Bull advocate. It is great to see peoples opinions change with experience as opposed to seeing things in the media. Thanks again everyone!
